From the Manufacturer

New adaptation of the famous Gothic novel by Matthew G. Lewis, written in 1796, about the tortuous life of the friar Ambrosio during the times of the Spanish Inquisition. This was the dream project of the Spanish director Luis Buñuel for many years, who wrote the screenplay for the famous version filmed in 1972 by Ado Kyrou, starring Franco Nero and Nathalie Delon, with a wonderful score by Piero Piccioni (whose CD premiere has been announced by Digitmovies label for the month of September).
